The TU Dres­den is one of ele­ven Ger­man uni­ver­si­ties that were iden­ti­fied as an “excel­lence uni­ver­sity”. TUD has about 36.500 stu­dents and almost 5319 employees, 507 pro­fes­sors among them, and, thus, is the lar­gest uni­ver­sity in Sax­ony, today.

Having been com­mit­ted to sci­en­ces and the engi­nee­ring before the reuni­fi­ca­tion of Ger­many, TU Dres­den now is a multi-disci­pline uni­ver­sity, also offe­ring huma­nities and social sci­en­ces as well as medi­cine.

Rese­arch Asso­ciate / PhD Stu­dent

(Sub­ject to per­so­nal qua­li­fi­ca­tion employees are remu­ne­ra­ted accord­ing to salary group E 13 TV-L)
The posi­tion is star­ting at the next pos­si­ble date for 3 years. The period of employ­ment is gover­ned by Fixed Term Rese­arch Con­tracts Act (Wis­sen­schafts­zeit­ver­trags­ge­setz-WissZeitVG). The posi­tion ent­ails 65 % of the full­time wee­kly hours and offers the chance to obtain fur­ther aca­de­mic qua­li­fi­ca­tion (e.g. PhD).
The can­di­date will be enga­ged in and sub­stan­ti­ally con­tri­bute to the pro­ject “Regu­la­tion of Cra­ving: Stress-chal­lenge and re-expo­sure effects”, which is fun­ded by the Deut­sche For­schungs­ge­mein­schaft. Stress and cra­ving are important pre­dic­tors for rel­apse in pati­ents with sub­s­tance use dis­or­ders. The cur­rent pro­ject seeks to examine how stress and exe­cu­tive func­tions inter­act to influ­ence the abi­lity to regu­late cra­ving and com­pa­res dif­fe­rent stra­te­gies to modu­late cra­ving with respect to their mid to long-term effects in smo­kers. A range of neu­ro­bio­lo­gi­cal methods are employed, inclu­ding fMRI, EEG, and saliva sam­ples, and the can­di­date will receive trai­ning in their app­li­ca­tion and ana­ly­sis.
The can­di­date will become part of the young and aspi­ring team at the Chair of Addic­tion rese­arch hea­ded by Prof. Dr. Tanja End­rass. The gene­ral focus of this group is to examine neural cor­re­la­tes of etio­lo­gi­cal and main­tai­ning fac­tors in sub­s­tance use and addic­tive beha­vi­ors, par­ti­cu­larly cogni­tive con­trol, impul­si­vity, and com­pul­si­vity.
